Rectory Manor

I recently stayed at the Rectory Manor Hotel in Sudbury, and I can't say enough about my wonderful experience! The owner was incredibly helpful over the phone when I was choosing my room, making the booking process smooth and easy. Upon arrival, both the staff and the owner greeted us warmly, making us feel right at home. The location is perfect, providing easy access to local attractions, and the hotel itself is a lovely place to relax. We had a fantastic time during our stay and will definitely be returning in the future. Highly recommended!

Our second time visiting and as promised we brought our friends along with us. Our friend is a world war fanatic and our host/owner Frank, was more than happy upon our request, to spend time with our friend and go through his family’s rich history which included signed pictures of the late King George and war medals. It’s such a beautiful manor, a comfortable welcoming atmosphere. It feels personal. I urge you all to stay here and explore the beautiful landscape and local town.

What a lovely upmarket B&B. I wanted to stay somewhere near Lavenham (6 minutes by car) and fancied something a little different from a hotel or pub with rooms. Rectory Manor Hotel is a beautiful family home with a number of beautifully decorated guest rooms. The house has gardens, a croquet lawn, outdoor pool and a walled garden. There’s a lounge given over to guests but decorated like a proper country home. Breakfast is served in a large dining room with a long refectory table so guests can meet each other. The owners are a charming and friendly couple and offer excellent advice on local restaurants and walks. Only word of warning - take care if you book an attic room in the stable extension - I don’t know how many times I bashed my head on the slopping ceilings!!!! Would stay again if I’m in the area.

A wonderful retreat! We were lucky enough to visit on a hot sunny day and had sole use of the pool area for a couple of hours on arrival. Wonderful. The manor is a special place to stay, a genuine place with a personal touch and great facilities. Fantastic value for money. Will definately be back

A fantastic stay in a charming country mansion. Frank the host was always on hand without being too obtrusive. This family run hotel gives a vastly different and most enjoyable experience to the usual chain hotels across the UK. Book it now!! 5 star stay

Rectory Manor is a luxurious retreat set within a large secluded garden. It is ideally located for Long Melford and Lavenham. The rooms are very well appointed and the atmosphere is quiet and relaxed. Frank is a welcoming host and Saxon looked after us very well.

Loved it. A highly agreeable interlude of a quality, space and tranquility. Great people and great food. A great place to be.

The Rectory Manor is the most comfortable overnight stay I have ever had in the U.K. A large garden in a small hamlet outside Sudbury in Suffolk, it has beautiful rooms in a converted stable. The large main house has a very comfortable sitting room and breakfast room showing some of the owner’s ancestry. And breakfast could not have been better. And our spaniel loved the garden. The owner lent us a book on the nearby 486 Bombardment Group airfield history, and although little is left except two stone pillars and a hangar, there is a museum in Sudbury dedicated to the USAAF. Highly recommended!

Booked for a single night as we were attending a function in Lavenham. Great first impressions upon arriving at the Hotel. We only stayed for 1 night but in that time we met 3 of the team (including the owner Frank) and the dogs. Everyone was very friendly (including the dogs) and the team wanted to ensure that everything was perfect for us which it was. We were in the stable block and the rooms we were staying in were very large, very comfortable beds, very clean, very warm and had a great shower. A very comfortable night. We had breakfast the following morning and opted to also have the cooked breakfast which was freshly cooked to order and tasted fantastic. All in all this is a great place and we are really pleased that we found it and stayed there. Thank you all.
